YouTube is one of the most common ways of sharing video. Is YouTube blocked in your school? Does that present obstacles? Tell us about them, and how you've been able to surmount them.
This might work...go to http://youtubedownload.altervista.org/ and download the program. Then go to you tube, find your video, open youtube download, paste the url, click on download now and you will be asked where you want to download the file. Save to a flash drive, take it to school and there you have it
YouTube was blocked at my school until this year. It would drive me CRAZY!! All Google "IMAGES" was blocked too. That made be berserk because I teach art! However, like rpalafox suggests, there are always ways to get around situations like this. It just takes time and extra effort. (This is unfortunate because teachers have so little time and already have to put in so much effort!) I too would download what I need and put it on DVDs for use at school.
This year, they have lifted the YouTube and Images ban on teacher stations. This is a good thing. However, we are using iPads this year too. Now there are so many things on the iPad that are blocked, it is almost impossible to use them for certain things like research. I have gotten around this by using my own, personal iPad (not on the school network) to show necessary teaching resources while in class. Also if I want the kids to partake, I use my teacher station connected to my Smartboard, show what the kids need, and then use the iPads for what will work on them.
It is NEVER easy, but we can find ways to make it doable! LOL LOL LOL
I work at a high school and YouTube and social networking sites are blocked for students, not teachers. We use Active Directory credentials to block those sites from students. I find this to be a good solution. Teachers are free to show YouTube videos that relate to their curriculum as well as engage in professional conversations on Twitter and other social networking sites.
Although I might prefer teaching appropriate use of these sites to students instead of blocking them, I understand that not all teachers have time in their curriculum to address these issues or the distractions that these sites bring.
Students have access to SchoolTube and TeacherTube as well as their personal email accounts (although we prefer they use the school email for communication with teachers).

Thanks for bringing up this question, Christine! Wonderopolis has received inquiries from teachers wondering how they can incorporate the Wonder of the Day into their classrooms, but some have been frustrated by the blockage of certain video sites, especially YouTube.
We'd love to hear from teachers, administrators or IT personnel who have found manageable ways to make resources like YouTube available for teachers who would like to use them. I think the suggestion of unblocking these sites on teacher stations is a good one. For computer labs where each student has a station, though, it would be great if an easy solution were available to allow access to videos used as part of a lesson.
Of course, teachers can always utilize the information and the activities in the Wonder of the Day without the video. Wonderopolis allows teachers to also extend the learning to the home environment by encouraging students to access Wonderopolis at home, where they can view the video and share what they've learned with their parents.
To help teachers who want to plan ahead, we've been posting the video links for the Wonders of the Day (including a couple of week's worth of future Wonders of the Day) in a spreadsheet available here in the Thinkfinity Community. Users can access it by clicking here.
I find it very inconsistent. I'm in schools all over NJ and no 2 are the same with regard to what they have blocked and what is available.
School Tube and Teacher Tube are usually available but I find that a lot of teachers have never heard of either of these as options.
I have heard of and used both School Tube and Teacher Tube. I HATE them both. I won't go into all the reason why I dislike using those sites, but I will say, I always go back to YouTube for it's reliability, wealth of video topics, and mostly, the SEARCH capabilities. I can actually find what I need there in seconds!!
I am the same way. I can never find what I need on schooltube and teachertube. I always wind up going to youtube at home, on my own time, and saving clips. It's not that I mind the work at home, it's just so inconvenient. Very difficult to teach "in the moment" when you can't access the materials.
YouTube is blocked throughout our district for both students and teachers. We are working on a solution but in the meantime, we advise teachers to use zamzar to download the videos at home and then bring them to school to share with their students. Zamzar also allows you to choose the format that you wish to download the video.
It is not the answer but it has worked for many of our teachers.
My friend got me onto zamzar and I really like the site. Where I taught YouTube was not blocked but if you ended up with a video that had questionable comments, then it was useful to have the video downloaded and saved on your computer ... also for filing purposes in case the video ever went off line. The only negative drawback to zamzar is that will only convert up to a certain sized video (I don't remember what it is), unless you have a paid account.
Other than that, zamzar defintely is worth it!!
I can suggest Freemake Video Downloader
as a useful tool for downloading videos from Youtube (and many other sites) and saving them in a format you can carry with you to class. It saves in a variety of formats including phone formats, and it will let you pull the audio-only from a download in case the video is not useful. (Sometimes it's an audio presentation and someone just throws one image up through the whole presentation, since Youtube doesn't allow audio-only uploads)
Another site that does not require a download (which is also blocked in many districts) is keepvid.com . No download required but allows you to save YouTube videos to your computer.
Right now, and for the foreseeable future they don't support this program for Mac. Any other cool programs you know of for us Apple users?
Hi Gregory,
On a mac, you can use web based tools to download YouTube videos to use in the classroom. My two favorite ones are linked below.
Additionally, I would recommend that you take a quick read over YouTube's terms and conditions, especially #4. I am no lawyer and I understand that "fair use" may come into play, but it is something to be aware of.

Christine, we have found an enormous number of districts block YouTube. In fact, so many districts were complaining about this restriction that last year Gaggle added a filtered YouTube application to its suite of safe online learning tools designed specifically for schools.
I believe others are working on similar applications, and there are many good suggestions in this thread as well. Since our inception 12-years ago, our passion has been to help schools bring back "blocked" technologies to the classroom by making them safe again. Social learning tools in particular are so very important to foster student engagement, and so are curriculum resources like YouTube.
BTW - I'm sorry for the shameless plug, but it was exactly feedback like this discussion thread that resulted in development of the application. Keep up the good work - we really are listening to educators to try and make a difference!
I manage a wide area network for 70 school districts and four regional public library systems. Our school districts are all across the board when it comes to allowing access to sites such as YouTube and Facebook. Some go to the most conservative level of blocking absolutely anything that involves social networking. Others have things wide open for everyone. Still others open some of these things for teachers but not students.
A lot of times You Tube is blocked not so much because of concern about the content but because of the bandwidth it can grab if everyone is trying to stream from it at once. When my districts ask my advice, I tell them to at least allow access for teachers, because there is some very good content there, but to advise teachers to find the video clips they want to use and either download them and save them using something like Zamzar or another application that allows you to cache them locally. That way, they don't have to worry about opening the site and having the video of the day feature nudity or bad language or something when it comes up.
For districts who feel really strongly about blocking it altogether, I offer the options of School Tube or Teacher Tube. The content is more limited than You Tube, but these sites do screen for educational purpose and don't allow anything objectionable to minors to be posted.
One thing I tell all my teachers is to develop a relationship with and talk to their technology coordinator. Often times, if a site they want to use is blocked, the technology coordinator will be unwilling to unblock it for a specific educational purpose or may suggest another tool that will also suit the need.
Are there any school consider youtube-cache? It seems that it will work great, because the teacher download the video once, all the rest of the student just download from the local cache. It's fast and bandwidth is saved.
Is there any one try it? I want to listen to some successful story to solve the two problems when using youtube.
(1) bandwidth limitation.
(2) content issues.
The Department of Education in West Virginia now allows teachers to submit the links for Youtube videos to them through a few different means and they unblock them state wide. This is a nice addition to our teaching arsenal, however we can't get this done immediately. They say the unlocking process should take 24 hours, but my experience suggests that is not always the case. I will give them credit, they do get it unlocked in a few days though.
The only thing we are missing is a list of what videos are unlocked and why. I think it would be nice if we knew what there was already easy access too and what there isn't. I am asking for a lot though. I assume that just this little bit of latitude takes some man hours to make happen; hence the delay in getting requests processed.
Minnesota schools are all over the board on this issue - similar to the varied responses in this thread so far. We have schools that block YouTube, and similar sites for everyone. Others open it for teachers/staff and yet others have it wide open to everyone.
I applaud the West Virginia DOE approach to unblock at least those videos that teachers request. I can only imagine the time involved by someone or multiple people in their organization who have to review the content and then make the entries in the firewall whitelist. This is one of the major reasons more districts (or regions/states) don't employ a strategy like this. Many schools have very limited resources in their technology support programs. Often working with a tiny staff (when compared to corporate siblings) and even smaller budget, it becomes both time and resource intensive to use the whitelist (only opening specific videos or sites) approach.
While it is certainly possible to open sites, such as YouTube, to a specific group of people (such as staff) or computers, in order to do this, the network structure needs to support it. This is not universally the case. The directory structure has to support it, certain network services need to be enabled, etc. It goes back to time and resources.
I am an advocate for opening sites such as YouTube that have a wealth of educationally sound material to everyone in the school. While there is some nefarious content, I think we need to educate students about what is educational use, develop a sound acceptable use policy with appropriate consequences, and then enforce it. I know this presents it's own set of issues and not everyone will agree. In fact, in any given school district, there will be staff, parents, board members, community members, etc. that won't agree with the policy no matter what it is.
I all comes down to communication and working together. We can look at all kinds of ways to circumvent the blocking. There are many good examples listed above. However, they all are somewhat labor intensive for the teacher/staff person and may even violate acceptable use policies or terms of service agreements. We can argue that the tech departments are unwilling to open the sites, which may really be about available time and resources. We can argue that we don't have enough time to enforce an acceptable use policy. What we really need to do is take the time to sit down with all the stakeholders (staff, administration, technology personnel, administrators, parents, board members) and have a discussion about what should be done. We've done this in some of the schools I work with and the results have been varied. In some cases, it has resulted in opening YouTube (or similar sites) while in other cases, it has stayed closed. However, even if everyone didn't agree, at least everyone knew why the decision was made and dialog had occurred.

Very well stated!
It is blocked in our county, but when you pull up a video and type the word "save" in front of youtube inthe URL, then you can download the video.
That sounds like an interesting solution! Is this something that the IT people in your county have come up with? Or is it something that could be replicated in other areas? I'd love to know more.
A couple of notes just to make sure everyone knows how this works...
Adding the word "save" in front of "youtube" in the URL actually takes you to a service, not affiliated with YouTube, that asks you to accept scripts to be run on your computer. The site claims not to install any software, but does require scripts to run.
Additionally, downloading YouTube videos, via any means, and subsequently displaying them, is a violation of YouTube's terms of service. I'm not the YouTube police, but just want to make sure everyone is clear on how this (and many similar services) work.

Many districts in my area block YouTube. Administrators are telling teachers that if they want to show a YouTube video to use a download site and bring the video to school on their USB drive.
You make an interesting point concerning YouTube's service agreement. Do you know if it applies to ALL videos, including those for educational purposes?
First, I'm not a lawyer and I don't even play one on TV, so I can only give my interpretation of issues related to this topic. Second, copyright law is gray at best, and if you ask a question of two people, you are likely to get at least two different answers! Additionally, I'm only trying to provide information so everyone is aware of the issues and not making any judgements.
That said, there are at least two issues here. One is the actual downloading of the content and the second is the act of playing the content.
My research indicates that the act of downloading it for personal use is OK. That is what most of the download service sites hang their hats on. Below is a snippet taken from answers.com - hardly a definitive resource, but the same basic concept is repeated on many other sources.
"Content that is obtained from a legal source and used for personal, non-commercial use is legal. This was decided in the Betamax case, which had to do with the rights of home recordists taping TV programs for personal use. Such copying qualifies as fair use under U.S. copyright law. The same principles would apply to content taken from the Internet, provided the content is legal to begin with."
Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Is_it_illegal_to_download_videos_from_YouTube
So, is downloading it and showing it to a class "personal, non-commercial use" or covered by fair use guidelines? This is where it gets gray and I could only give an opinion. This, you'll have to take up with your conscience or a copyright lawyer :-)
The final point, however, is that showing it violates the YouTube terms of service. Part 4C of their TOS agreement says,
"You agree not to access Content through any technology or means other than the video playback pages of the Service itself, the Embeddable Player, or other explicitly authorized means YouTube may designate."
This would indicate that showing the video with anything other than their web site or through their Embeddable Player would be a violation of the TOS. Basically, the issue here is that YouTube is free to all of us consumers because Google sells advertising on the site. If we don't see the advertising along with the videos, then Google doesn't make money and the service may not be able to stay free, or exist at all. So, they set their terms to favor income for them. What are the penalties? Apart from potentially having a Google account stripped, I'm not sure. So again, it really leaves it up to your conscience or a lawyer.
Probably not a great answer, but a little more information on this topic.

Very interesting! This leaves me thinking about 'Digital Citizenship' & 'Character Development'. How do we teach appropriate use and differentiate instruction and 21st Century Skills in shades of grey? I will have to think about this for a while.
Thank you for your views.
It is such a relief to see that someone else has the same opinion as myself. I agree with both your statements as I too have pointed to part 4C of YouTube's TOS on a number of occasions (perhaps even in this community).
My bottom line is that even if a teacher feels they can "justify" their use of YouTube (or any other site) under fair use, students often can't separate the difference. For example, if a teacher shows a student how to record streaming audio off the Internet for a class project, they think that is okay, so they start recording entire songs off the Internet and add them to their iPod. The latter is obviously illegal; however, recording for a class project could possibility fall under fair use (especially if the recording is 30 seconds or less). I believe that teachers should encourage the use of copyright friendly resources for multimedia or have students create their own music/videos/pictures/etc to use. Personally, I think it is much better for a student to create something 100% original, then to use something off the Internet.
Thank you for bringing this up. It truely is a "gray" area.

This Copyright School link just popped up in my Google Reader. My understanding is that users who do not follow copyright policies must go to "copyright school." Ebay has a similar program for users who break Ebay policy.
Thought I would share, since this is such a hot topic in this discussion.
Here's is an idea for a way to work around You Tube being blocked in your school. Embed the You Tube video in a Word document or PowerPoint presentation and take that to school on a jump drive to show your students. A tutorial video showing How to Embed You Tube Videos into Microsoft Office 2007 Documents is available on You Tube.
Yes, youtube is blocked at my school. For the most part, I agree, but occassionally I would like to show a demonstration. For instance, for the holidays, my students are using a photo of themselves and importing it to make an orgami ornament. The importing and printing of the paper I can demonstrate on the smartboard, but showing a youtube demonstration on how to fold the origami would have been helpful!
Lynne, I'll have to use your post above to try to get the video from home and embed it into a doc! Great idea! Thanks for the tip!
http://www.insidetheschool.com/articles/the-protecting-children-in-the-21st-century-act-%e2%80%93-a-re-introduction/ go to the end of 3rd paragraph - there are NO laws that require these sites to be blocked - it's a control thing by your system. Plus if all staff has a unique login - sites visited can be tracked.
Great article, Barb. Everyone should take this to their school board. Let's change the system. Going around blocked sites does not demonstrate good digital citizenship. I have heard the "E-Rate" excuse used in many districts. I am glad to hear that the FCC has come to the realization that social media websites are not harmful as websites. School boards should spend some time and discussion developing their digital citizenship policy. I am taking this article to my next BOE meeting and volunteering to be on a committee to look into creating a policy to comply with the Protecting Children in the 21st Century Act.
Does anyone have any other advice or articles pertaining to this?
I saw this artilce in today's ASCD SmartBrief: http://www.ubergizmo.com/2011/12/youtube-for-schools/
Yes - a teacher just passed this info to me and our tech dept. They are checking it out right now. We have previously always blocked Youtube for Middle and High school students. K-5 students and all staff have open access. Providing a secure access for all students is a big step forward.
The YouTube for Schools looks like a wonderful site... there are lots of other collected links for educators, as well.
Google recently launched YouTube for Schools. Read more about it in the Do You Google group's blog post.
I work in Johnston County in North Carolina. We are blocked, but have some access via Gaggle.net.
They have gaggletube a filtered u-tube access point. You can save it to your account and play videos from your account.
In Iredell Gaggle was purchased for middle school and they use it mostly to access YouTube. Waste of funding since a system - if they know what they are doing - can allow access to teachers when they log into the system and can track activity. Good luck!!!!
I hope the gaggletube is free; websense prevents teachers @PS89X, Bronx, NYC from accessing Youtube. I am going to try it and/or try zamzar. Thank you though FYI. REYNALDOS
Youtube is not blocked at my school: However, I often work with the DVDVideoSoft Free Studio, which allows us to download videos and save them in any video format (AVI, MP4, mpeg, etc).
Unfortunately, many forms of media are blocked...even museum sites. We are not allowed to view movies or movie clips without Board permission...so much for 21st century skills.
Oh my gosh, Suzanne, where are you located? As an encyclopedia web site admin, I find that distressing.
Yes, it's distressing and discouraging...sometimes one just reinvents the wheel, especially being from Jersey.
I'm in Jersey as well and my boss tells me YouTube is blocked due to the ads- and the ads seem to move so sometimes things work and sometimes they don't.
It's an ongoing issue.
With either Google Chrome or Firefox, I use Adblock Plus and I never see ads on Youtube.
Hi Barbara,
You may want to check out A Cleaner Internet which offers a browser extension to declutter the ads from You Tube. It's mentioned in another discussion related to You Tube videos What do you think of the "cleaner" version of You Tube for the classroom? located in the Online Tools for Educators group.
Maybe this will help resolve your problem with ads changing frequently.
Hi Barbara,
You might consider asking your boss about getting a YouTube for Education account. Your school has to create an account, but it might be a good way to gain access to educational resources. There is a blog post entitled YouTube for Schools located in the Do You Google? group if you want to know more.
It is blocked in our school district for the middle school and high school but not for the gradeschool. It has been left to the Principal of each building what will work best for their buildings, their students, and staff. We are a small district, just under 300 students prek-12. At the elemetary level it is mostly used by the staff sharing with their students with the use of a computer and projector. If a teacher wants a student to view something on their classroom computers they check it first for any unflavorable comments etc. Students are told to ask permission to access YouTube if they are working on a class project that it maybe helpful for and are cautioned what is appropriate and what's not during the school day. When some of MS/HS teachers want to use a YouTube video, they can request it with the principal and he can put in the password for access for the day. After reading through this discussion I have learned about several tools that can be very useful by both buildings.
There is a very easy way to download youtube video. In the URL change the word youtube to voobys and it will open a window. From there you can download the video in different formats. You can also download the FLV player to play the video (it is # 2). Then save it to your flashdrive. When you go to show it at school open the FLV player then open the video file and it should play. Definitely try it before you need it to make sure it works.
When you save the video you will have it even if it goes off line.
I was in a recent workshop with teachers, and many said that YouTube was blocked in their classrooms. They requested a list of videos that we have posted on YouTube, so they can use that list as a conversation tool with their principals/network folks/school boards. They thought that it would be useful to have it as evidence of "Look what we're missing! From the Smithsonian!"
Would that be useful for anyone else?
(As a side note, almost all of the content we have on YouTube is also available in streaming WMV.)
I retired last year with 37 years of Kindergarten and for the last 4 years of my teaching I used YouTube just about everyday. Our principal would give you the password to override the block and it was great! By the way, YouTube is amazing I used it for every unit I taught, from dancing skeleton (bones) to traveling on Amtrak for Polar express to traveling on the elevator up the Washington monument! I kind of wish You Tube would also figure a way to organize their "stuff" so that things with adult content would show up somewhere different....I also do not like Teacher tube.....Yea YouTube!!
Hi Bobbi Jo,
Google recently launched YouTube for Education. It does exactly what you want- filters out all the inappropriate content. Schools have to apply to gain access, but it seems like a good options for those who use lots of YouTube content to supplement their curriculum.
I work for the NYCDOE who apparently does not communicate with NY State ED. The NYCDOE has utube blocked yet when you go to the State Ed website for resources pertaining to the Living Enviornment Regents there are videos created to be used with the labs which can only be accessed if you are able to use utube. So, what are we supposed to do? How can you use a recommended, sanctioned resource from the state when the city blocks you from it? Not only that but the very city that mandates the Regents which the website is supporting! I just love the geniuses who get paid by my and everyone elses city taxes to make such "well thought out" decisions they make my job soooo much easier!
In North Carolina there are some systems smart enough to create teacher profiles so when teachers log in they can access YouTube videos and yes NC Department of Instruction also posts to YouTube and in many systems teachers can only access from home. Teachers sign an agreement that they are responsible for video content and must receive prior approval which means they should have previewed for appropriate content.
Many of you mentioned using School Tube. I have gone to the site many times and found it to be impossible to use in finding specific topics. I have never used it in school because it is so user unfriendly. Maybe it's because I am not doing something correctly. Are there suggestions you could offer me?
I am not sure about School Tube, but someone shared this great Google Doc with me: 80 Alternatives to You Tube. Maybe that will help?
Hi Debbie and Penny,
You may want to check out SchoolTube now that they have redesigned it. Also, Wonderopolis now has its own channel, there. Check it out! :-) Wonderopolis Channel
If you are looking for a cleaner way to view You Tube videos, check out these three clutter-free ways to display You Tube videos--
Does anyone use these tools? What do you think of them for classroom use?
You Tube is not blocked in my school; however I don't like to use the video right from the Your Tube page. I use View Pure to bring the vidoe in my classroom. You never know what is going to be posted right along with the video that you have selected. It might be OK for your students to view but then again it may not be. To protect me, I always use View Pure to bring in that GREAT video into my classroom.
Thanks for the other two sites, I will have to check them out.
Thanks, I'm with you. I didn't know about this site. I will give it a go.
While youtube is blocked in our system, we are utilizing something called VuSafe which allows teachers to earmark youtube videos at home so that they can be viewed at school. Our backup plan has always been Zamzar so I am extremely disappointed to see that Zamzar (because of an agreement with Google) will no longer convert youtube videos :-(
Thanks for the new site (to me) VuSafe. I will have to try this out.
YouTube was blocked in my district until this year. Before then, I would use a dongle to connect my iPhone to the LCD projector to show the youtube videos I wanted. Dongle's cost about $30 at Sams Club. If you need volume, however, you will need some speakers to plug into your headphone jack.
I don't even know why they block school at school I actually need it when I work on group projects! Anyway I tried what you mentioned what worked for me at the end was just getting a VPN.
I ended up downloading highspeedVPN (you can get it from http://www.highspeedvpn.com/) and it works alright.
We have a great visit to YouTube at our school, never had problem with it.
I always use AppGeeker video converter to download interesting videos off YouTube onto HDD, and sometimes transcode them to a certain format.
Nothing special but works for me.
I've enjoyed reading the various posts and comments. YouTube was blocked in my school district at the beginning of the school year. By December, YouTube and iTunes were made available to teachers using a special log in filter.
The live streaming is problematic due to the ads, bandwidth use etc. Something that has been working well is embedding the YouTube video directly into teacher web pages. This is especially helpful for the flipped/blended learning environments. You're able to embed just the video by inserting the code. We've found that by selecting "enable privacy-enhanced mode" the videos will work within the district network and there is no need for additional passwords etc.
There are many ways to access blocked websites, But The best way is to use vpn service, every now and then I have to travel to China, Almost all websites are blocked there.
Since I'm using vpn, I never had any problem, If it can help you more, I bought my account from this website http://saturnvpn.com
It's really cheap, 1month $3.3 , 3Months $7 , 6Months $10, 12Months $16
Online support is helpful. everything has been great so far.
My school won't allow any of these websites and I want to know how to get past! We Have TwoTrees and it won't allow appropriate websites! I need help!
Perhaps if you talked with your school administrator and/or IT persons, they would be willing to unblock one of these two sites:
http://www.youtube.com/education (This is YouTube for educators with no ads and extraneous videos.)
http://www.schooltube.com/ (This site has a large number of free videos for students and teachers.)
Let us know if either of these will work for you.
I use www.youtubeinmp4.com. This allows me to copy the URL, paste on the website then download and save to a thumb drive. Or I've embedded the saved file into an interactive whiteboard program such as ActiveInspire. Either way, I can play any video on the computer or upload to my website
I use http://proxymonster.us for unblock youtube in my school.

Happy Valley girls top JC
By Tim Chambers
MOUNTAIN CITY — It wasn't a thing of beauty, but nobody could discount the outstanding defensive efforts of Happy Valley and Johnson County.
The Lady Warriors hit some key free throws down the stretch to earn a hard-fought 53-49 win.
Neither team led by more than five points at any time in this contest. Happy Valley's 50-45 advantage with 1:50 remaining was the largest lead of the game.
The Lady Warriors would hold on with the help of some clutch free-throw shooting in the final minute. Coach Larry Abel was happy with his team's effort, especially on the defensive side.

Effective November 17, 1998 with subsequent amendments
The primary purposes of character and fitness screening before admission to the Bar of Montana are to assure the protection of the public and safeguard the justice system. An attorney should be one whose record of conduct justifies the trust of clients, adversaries, courts and others with respect to the professional duties owed to them.
The public is adequately protected only by a system that evaluates the character and fitness as those elements relate to the practice of law. The public interest requires that the public be secure in its expectation that those who are admitted to the bar are worthy of the trust and confidence clients may reasonably place in their attorney.
Except as otherwise indicated, the following definitions apply:
(a) "Applicant" as used in these rules refers to any person applying or reapplying for temporary or permanent admission to practice law in Montana. This does not include those applying for admission pro hac vice. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
(b) "Commission" as used in these rules refers to the Commission on Character and Fitness, whose members are appointed by the Montana Supreme Court.
(c) "Fitness" as used in these rules is the assessment of mental and emotional health and condition as it affects the competence of a prospective attorney. The purpose of requiring an applicant to possess this fitness is to exclude from the practice of law any person having a mental or emotional illness or condition which would be likely to prevent the person from carrying out duties to clients, courts or the profession. An applicant may be of good moral character, but may be incapacitated from proper discharge of his or her duties as an attorney by such illness or condition. The fitness required is a present fitness, and prior mental or emotional illness or conditions are relevant only so far as they indicate the existence of a present lack of fitness.
(d) "Good Moral Character" as used in these rules refers to the qualities of fairness, discreetness, honesty, reasonableness, unquestionable integrity and ability and willingness to act in accordance with the standards set forth in the Montana Rules of Professional Conduct.
(e) "Certification" as used in these rules refers to permission to sit for the Montana bar examination and/or be admitted to the practice of law in Montana. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
(a) Administration of Oaths. Any member of the Commission shall have power to administer oaths in relation to any matter within the functions of the Commission.
(b) Admission to the Bar. The Commission shall conditionally or unconditionally certify to the Supreme Court for admission to the Bar such applicants, and only such applicants, who possess the necessary qualifications of good moral character and fitness to practice law, as defined in these rules.
(c) Commission and Staff Judicial Immunity. In exercising its functions and powers, the Commission, its members, employees and all personnel through whom the Commission functions, shall enjoy such judicial immunities as the Montana Supreme Court would enjoy if performing the same functions. The Commissioners and/or their designees shall not disclose to any third party any information obtained with respect to the character and fitness of any applicant, declarant, or conditionally certified applicant, except:
(1) upon written authority of such applicant, declarant or conditionally certified applicant;
(2) in response to valid subpoena from a court of competent jurisdiction;
(3) to the Montana Supreme Court, the Montana Supreme Court Commission on Practice, Office of Discipline Counsel or Commission on Unauthorized Practice of Law; (Amended by Supreme Court Order 1/30/03)
(4) upon written request from the National Conference of Bar Examiners or from other admitting bar agencies or other bar associations when accompanied by an authorization and release duly executed by the person about whom such information is sought;
(5) upon written request from the law school from which the applicant will graduate or has graduated.
(d) Subpoena Power. The Commission chair shall have power to issue subpoenas for the attendance of witnesses or for the production of documentary evidence before the Commission or before anyone authorized to act on behalf of the Commission. The party desiring issuance of such subpoena shall apply therefor with the Commission.
(e) Taking of Testimony. Any member of the Commission, and any other person who has the power to administer oaths, shall have power, upon order of the Commission, to take testimony in reference to any matter within the function of the Commission.
(f) Third-Party Privilege. Records, statements of opinion and other information regarding an applicant for admission to the bar communicated in good faith and without malice by any entity, including any person, firm or institution, to the Commission or its members, employees or agents are privileged, and no evidence thereof is admissible in any lawsuit. Waiver, if any, of such privilege by voluntary disclosure shall be determined under Rule 503, Mont.R.Evid. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
(g) Fees and Expenses. Commission members shall be entitled to actual and necessary travel and per diem compensation provided by the State Bar of Montana for its committees. The Commission may, upon approval from the Montana Supreme Court, engage professional staff necessary to accomplish its tasks. The requirement of court approval does not apply to counsel or investigator(s) engaged on a case-by-case basis.
(h) Other Powers. The Commission shall have such other powers as are set out in the Rules for Admission to the Bar of the State of Montana. The powers set out in these rules regarding subpoenas, discovery and testimony shall be governed where applicable by the Montana Rules of Civil Procedure.
(a) Every applicant for the Montana Bar Examination shall be of good moral character and fitness. The applicant shall have the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that he or she is possessed of good moral character and fitness. No applicant shall be certified by the Commission to the Bar Admissions Administrator for examination and/or admission to the Bar of Montana unless such applicant first produces satisfactory evidence to the Commission of good moral character and an adequate knowledge of the standards and ideals of the profession and that such applicant is otherwise fit to take the oath and perform the obligations and responsibilities of an attorney. The Commission must be convinced that prior or present conduct of the applicant of which the Commission becomes aware would cause a reasonable person to believe that such applicant would, if admitted to practice law in Montana, be willing and able to act in accordance with the standards set forth in the Montana Rules of Professional Conduct, and would act fairly, discreetly, honestly, reasonably and with unquestionable integrity in all matters in which he or she acts as an attorney at law. An attorney should be one whose record of conduct justifies the trust of clients, adversaries, courts and others with respect to the professional duties owed to them. A record manifesting a lack of honesty, trustworthiness, diligence or reliability of an applicant may constitute a basis for denial of admission. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
(b) Evidence of any of the following will be treated by the Commission as cause for further inquiry before the Commission decides whether the applicant possesses the character and fitness to practice law:
1. Unlawful conduct;
2. Academic misconduct;
3. Making or procuring any false or misleading statements or omissions of relevant information, including any false or misleading statement or omission in the Application for Admission to the Bar of Montana, or in any testimony or sworn statement submitted to the Commission;
4. Misconduct in employment;
5. Acts involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation;
6. Abuse of legal process;
7. Neglect of financial responsibilities;
8. Neglect of professional obligations;
9. Violation of an order of the court;
10. Current mental or emotional illness or disorder;
11. Drug or alcohol dependency;
12. Denial of admission to the bar in another jurisdiction on character and fitness grounds;
13. Disciplinary action by a lawyer disciplinary agency or other professional disciplinary agency of any jurisdiction;
14. Any other conduct which reflects adversely upon the character or fitness of the applicant.
(c) In making the determination on character and fitness of each applicant the following factors shall be considered in assigning weight and significance to prior conduct of the applicant:
1. The applicant's age at the time of the conduct;
2. The recency of the conduct;
3. The reliability of the information concerning the conduct;
4. The seriousness of the conduct;
5. The factors underlying the conduct;
6. The cumulative effect of the conduct or information;
7. The evidence of rehabilitation;
8. The applicant's positive social contributions since the conduct;
9. The applicant's candor in the admission process;
10. The materiality of any omissions or misrepresentations.
(d) An applicant may, by written request to the Commission on Character and Fitness, withdraw an Application for Admission at any time. However, in such event the Commission may continue its investigative and adjudicatory functions to conclusion. Failure on the part of the applicant to provide requested information and/or documentation within a reasonable amount of time may result in denial of certification for examination and/or admission. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
(e) Alternatively, an applicant may, by written request, withdraw with prejudice an application for admission to the Bar of Montana. The Commission shall accept the withdrawal with prejudice and shall immediately dismiss its investigative and adjudicatory functions. An applicant who files a withdrawal with prejudice shall be permanently barred from filing a subsequent application for admission to the Bar of Montana.
(f) An applicant who has been disbarred from the practice of law in another jurisdiction shall not be eligible to apply for admission to the Bar of Montana for a period of five (5) years from the date of disbarment. The applicant must also submit written proof of compliance with the terms and conditions of his or her disbarment or proof of good standing from the state in which he or she was disbarred.
(g) An applicant who has been suspended from the practice of law in another jurisdiction shall not be eligible to apply for admission to the Bar of Montana until expiration of the period of suspension and until the applicant has submitted written proof of compliance with the terms of the suspension.
(h) An applicant found guilty of a felony is conclusively presumed not to have present good moral character and fitness. The presumption ceases upon completion of the sentence and/or period of probation.
(i) There shall be a rebuttable presumption that nondisclosure of a material fact on the application is prima facie evidence of the lack of good character. The presumption shall be the same whether the nondisclosure is discovered prior or subsequent to the applicant's admission to the bar. The presumption may be rebutted by clear and convincing evidence of mistake or of rehabilitation and current good character.
(a) Initial Investigation. Every applicant's moral character and fitness to practice law shall be investigated by the Bar Admissions Administrator. Any concerns the Bar Admissions Administrator has will be referred to a subcommittee of two (2) members of the Commission for further investigation.
1. In every such investigation, the Bar Admissions Administrator or the subcommittee may obtain such information as bears upon the character, fitness and general qualifications of the applicant and administer oaths and affirmations, and compel by subpoena the attendance of witnesses and the production of books, papers and documents. Any member of the Commission may administer such oaths and affirmations and have all other powers as set forth under Section 3.
2. The subcommittee may require an applicant to furnish at the applicant's expense a background investigation report from the National Conference of Bar Examiners or other designated agency.
3. Objection to any applicant may be made by any person by filing with the Commission a sworn statement setting forth the basis for the objection. This statement will be made available to the applicant.
4. The subcommittee may require sworn taped interviews with an applicant to clarify information in the application, to determine eligibility for admission or to facilitate the investigation.
(b) Post Investigation. Following its investigation, the Bar Admissions Administrator or the subcommittee shall recommend to the Commission that an applicant be granted certification; granted conditional certification subject to probationary terms as specified by the subcommittee; or denied certification.
1. In the event the subcommittee recommends denial of certification for examination and/or admission, written notice shall be served upon the applicant advising the applicant as to the matters which, if proven, would preclude a favorable finding by the Commission. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
2. If such notice is served upon an applicant, the applicant shall file an answer to the notice within twenty (20) days from receipt of the notice. If an applicant fails to file an answer to the notice within such time or within any extension of time allowed by the Commission, the matters shall be deemed admitted and the Commission shall enter findings of fact, and appropriate conclusions of law, which may include a recommendation that the applicant not be admitted to the State Bar of Montana.
3. In the event the subcommittee does not agree upon a recommendation, the full Commission will decide whether to certify, conditionally certify or deny certification for examination and/or admission. Such decision will be by a majority vote of the full Commission. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
(c) Hearing. In the event the applicant is denied certification, the Commission shall notify the applicant in writing of the specific reasons for denial. The applicant shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of the decision to file a written request for hearing. The hearing panel shall consist of the remaining members of the Commission not participating in the investigation of the applicant. A majority of the hearing panel shall make the final decision. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01.)
1. The Commission shall notify the applicant in writing of the date, time and place of such hearing and of the applicant's right to be represented by counsel at the hearing, to examine and cross-examine witnesses, to adduce evidence bearing on the aforesaid adverse matters and upon the applicant's moral character and general fitness to practice law and, for such purposes, to make reasonable use of the Commission's subpoena powers.
2. If the applicant files a written request for hearing, the applicant must supply a list of witnesses, including addresses and phone numbers, and all supporting documentation including evidence, affidavits, exhibits, etc., he or she feels is necessary to support his or her certification at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing. The applicant must supply the original and seven (7) copies of all such materials to the Commission's office, 7 West Sixth Ave., Suite 2B, P.O. Box 577, Helena, MT 59624. (Amended by Supreme Court Orders 4/10/01 and 1/30/03.)
3. The hearings before the Commission shall be open unless the applicant requests that they be private and the panel chair rules that the applicant's individual privacy requires that the meeting be closed. In making this determination, the panel chair must find that the demands of individual privacy clearly exceed the merits of public disclosure.
4. The burden of proof shall be on the applicant to establish by clear and convincing evidence that the applicant is possessed of good moral character and general fitness to practice law.
5. Rules of Evidence need not be observed. The Commission may, in its discretion, take evidence in other than testimonial form, having the right to rely upon records and other materials furnished to the Commission in response to its request for assistance in its inquiries. The Commission may, in its further discretion, determine whether evidence to be taken in testimonial form shall be taken in person at the hearing or upon deposition, but all testimonial evidence shall in either event be taken under oath. A complete stenographic record of the hearing shall be kept, and a transcript may be ordered by the applicant at the applicant's own expense.
6. The Commission on Character and Fitness shall, when denying admission, issue written findings of fact, conclusions of law, and decision concerning the applicant's character and fitness to practice law.
(d) Conditional Certification. The subcommittee or the full Commission may conditionally certify the applicant for examination and/or admission. The subcommittee and Commission may require specific probationary terms for admission, including, but not limited to, requiring alcohol or drug treatment, requiring medical care, requiring psychological or psychiatric care, requiring professional office practice or management counseling, requiring practice supervision, requiring notice to the Commission on Character and Fitness if a complaint against the applicant is filed with the Commission on Practice and/or Office of Disciplinary Counsel, and requiring professional audits or reports. The Commission may require persons to supervise the probation and may recommend that cooperation with such supervisors be a probationary term. The Commission may require a specific duration for such probationary terms. (Amended by Supreme Court Order 4/10/01 and 1/30/03.)
(e) Failure to Comply with Stipulation. Upon failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the conditional certification stipulation, the Commission may:
1. Request evidence of compliance with the stipulation be submitted to the Commission within ten (10) days following the date of the request.
2. In the event there is continued non-compliance with the stipulation, the Commission may convene a show cause hearing at the request of the applicant applying the provisions of Section 5(c) of these Rules. Violation of any probationary terms for admission may be grounds for recommendation by the Commission to the Montana Supreme Court that applicant's certification to practice law be revoked and that the applicant immediately be suspended from the practice of law.
(a) The findings of fact, conclusions of law and final decision of the Commission shall be conclusive unless a verified Petition for Review shall be filed by the applicant with the Montana Supreme Court within thirty (30) days following service upon the applicant of the findings, conclusions and decision in the manner provided by these rules. A copy of the Petition for Review shall also be filed with the Commission. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of said Petition, the Commission shall transmit the entire record to the Clerk of the Supreme Court and a response to the Petition fully advising the Court as to the Commission's reasons for its decision, and admitting or contesting any assertions made by the applicant in said Petition.
(b) Any interlocutory order of the Commission shall be subject to review as provided by Rule 17 of the Montana Rules of Appellate Procedure.
(c) To the extent practicable, an appeal by an applicant for admission to the practice of law from a final decision of the Commission shall be governed by the rules set forth in the Montana Rules of Appellate Procedure.
(d) If the applicant is/was licensed to practice law in another jurisdiction, the Commission may provide such jurisdiction(s) with a copy of its findings of fact, conclusions of law and final decision without prior approval from the applicant. (Added by Supreme Court Order on 1/30/03.)
Except as otherwise specified within these rules, an applicant denied certification may reapply for admission no earlier than four (4) years from the date of the final decision. "Final decision" refers to the last decision made: by the Supreme Court if the matter has been appealed, or by the Commission if it has not been appealed. The applicant must be able to demonstrate, by clear and convincing evidence, rehabilitation and current fitness to practice law. (Amended by Supreme Court Order on 1/30/03)
Amended by Supreme Court Order on 3/23/00, 4/10/01, and 1/30/03)

Plop List Talks New Website With The Earwolf Team
This week, Earwolf's Co-Founder, Jeff Ullrich, invited me to come to their studio and interview the Earwolf team about the launch of their newly redesigned website. Earwolf recorded the interview as part of it's weekly business of podcasting show, The Wolf Den.
My less-than-stellar broadcasting skills aside, it was a rare treat for some one-on-one time with a Ullrich and his talented wunderkind team. Along with Ullrich, I spoke with Shahruz Shaukat, the infamous Engineer Doug (Douglas Sadler), Andres Lucero, Aaron Nestor, Ben Cordes and Frank Cappello. It was a great opportunity to have some face time with those talented and truly engaged guys. That's the key revelation from my interview. Earwolf is passionate about comedy and what they do. They give a crap. Hooray for that. Podcast and comedy fans are better off for it. Keep on on the lookout for more new shows and digital tools from Earwolf.
For the Wolf Den interview, we talked over an hour about the nifty site design and the positives along with some self-flagellation just for fun. It was an easy going wonky session. In lieu of a full recap, check-out the show.
Special shout-out to Caroline Anderson for the great work on all the Earwolf updates and written descriptions for the Earwolf shows and guest pages.

This was the PERFECT bed and breakfast! It's in a GREAT quiet neighborhood on the water, but close to everything you may need (shops, beaches, restaurants). Matlacha is a small quaint and absolutely beautiful little island where the people all know each other and are very friendly and helpful! The rooms were clean, spacious, and OH THE VIEW!!!! Amazing sunsets!! We even stayed in room upstairs where you could see the sun come up in the morning from one window and then you can see it set at night from your porch/balcony. It's really beautiful. The hosts are GREAT - extremely helpful and provided us with everything we needed. They even gave us a ride when we had car trouble. The Inn's canoes are available anytime you want and the manatees, dolphins, and osprey's are a sight to see. All in all a delight!!!
4,6 sur juillet 12, 2012
I just got back from my little getaway in Matlacha. I couldn't have chosen a better place to stay at! Bayview B&B in Matlacha truly is a gem!! The pictures posted on the inn's website are true to how the inn really looks....quaint, cozy, cute, peaceful, and nature surrounding! It has so much to offer & the rates for all it has to offer make it very affordable. I stayed here for 3 nights with my boyfriend (and wish we stayed longer!). The moment we arrived, we knew we made a great choice in selecting this inn. Diane & Bill were so kind and welcoming! They gave us great recommendations on places nearby to visit. The room was spacious, and the balcony view is just so gorgeous! Everyday we spent some time on the balcony admiring the pretty, peaceful scenery. There is so much nature to see. At breakfast on the deck, we saw manatee & dolphin! We took the canoe out & a dolphin was swimming about 30 feet from us! We also fished off the dock, and the fish were plentiful. I can't wait to return to this inn in the cooler months, when I'm told, more manatee hang around the inn! If you are at all in the SW area of FL, this B&B is a must to stay at! Thanks so much Diane & Bill :) Bernadette & Giulio

Aside from all the beautiful views and sunsets that we saw while we stayed here, we love to watch birds . One morning as we opened our blinds we saw an osprey eating a freshly caught fish right on our deck. What a thrill that was. We watched her for 15 minutes till she flew up into her nest 40 ft away. We will return again. What a great spot.
5 sur juin 20, 2009
Had a great 5 days at the Inn. To our surprise everything on their website was true. Especially enjoyed watching the Osprey, Dolphins and Manatee as we ate breakdast on our deck, yes we will miss the Inn and the little crafts shops in Matlacha, but will return asap.
4,4 sur mars 17, 2009
Enjoyed our two days at he Inn on the Bay. Wish we could have stayed longer as we found it peaceful and relaxing. The hosts were so helpful and gave suggestions of places we might enjoy in the area. We are planning on returning to the area again and will look forward to spending time at the Inn.

We needed a quick getaway from life and found it at Bayview B&B. The view of Charlotte Harbor from our balcony was wonderful .Our beachy condo room was quite comfortable and very clean. We like to fish and totally enjoyed the nicely kept lighted docks. Bill and Diane shared their home grown papaya and fresh pineapple with us for breakfast. They also gave us great recommendations for local shopping and dining.

After much searching for the best price, I found this cassette at probikekit.com and quickly ordered it. This component is something that I usually hate to buy, but have to at least once a season. Probikekit.com made the experience simple and economical and I appreciate that. Also, my CX bike appreciates the smooth and quiet action of the cassette and the gear ratio is perfect for me and the main reason why I didn't buy a competitors product.
Keep up the good work PBK!

I use these for cyclocross. 12-27 is perfect, and with how many cassettes / wheels I use for 'cross, the 105 level is a value leader. Not the lightest, but then again neither am I. Buy this with confidence.

Delivery was much faster than expected. Perfect packaging - part was fresh in original never opened box. Verry fair and competitive price.

While auto sales are up 14% so far for 2012, not everyone is celebrating. Some high-profile models from big-name manufacturers -- Honda, General Motors (GM, Fortune 500), Mercedes-Benz -- have taken a dive, while more specialized concepts have found themselves appealing to an ever-smaller coterie of buyers.
Failure has consequences. Some of the cars on this list are headed for the scrap heap, and one is already there. But with the help of Edmunds.com's capable statisticians, I have tried to eliminate the most obvious fatalities. So Lincoln Town Car, Toyota Matrix, and Mitsubishi Eclipse -- you will have to look elsewhere for your obituaries.
With that said, here are the 10 models with the biggest sales drops in 2012.
When in doubt, car customers shopped for auto sales deals in 2012 and bought these 10 cars.

Kerry Rhodes: Matt Ryan is 'playing at an MVP level' this season
Sunday, they are set to face Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan. Although the four-year pro might not be considered among the elite passers in the league today with the likes of Brady, Rodgers and the Manning brothers, his numbers so far this season have been staggering.
Through nine games, Ryan has thrown for 2,771 yards (second-best in the NFL) and 20 touchdowns (fourth-best in the NFL). He is also completing 68.4 percent of his passes and has a quarterback rating of 102.6 (fourth-best in the NFL).
After watching film of the former Boston College star over the past few days, the Cardinals are certainly not taking Ryan lightly.
"Matt Ryan is playing at an MVP level right now," safety Kerry Rhodes said. "We know that Atlanta likes to jump out early on teams at home, and they are an explosive team. For us, we have to be on our A-game from the beginning."
Ryan -- who is coming off a season-high 411 passing yards in a loss to the New Orleans Saints -- has only turned the ball over eight times this season, but in order for Arizona's defense to get comfortable inside the Georgia Dome, Rhodes believes they need to make him uncomfortable by forcing a big play sooner rather than later in the contest.
"If we can play well from the beginning, and the defense can force a three-and-out or a turnover, our offense can go down and score points early," said Rhodes. "From that point on, we'll roll pretty much."
While Rhodes' best laid plans seem simple enough, in their four wins this season, however, the Cardinals have only forced two first quarter turnovers.
On the flip side, in two career starts against Arizona, Ryan has thrown for 424 yards to go along with five touchdowns and two interceptions.

Accepted Offer
Negative Experience
Average Interview
I applied through an employee referral and the process took 5 days - interviewed at HCL Technologies in June 2012.
Interview Details Terrible.
First interview was a telephone interview with HCL. A certain Watford based recruitment manager, Mr SS, also made a long list of false promises.
Second interview was at the customers site - then an offer was made the same day. All of the terms we had verbally agreed were changed within being onsite for 6 months - the contract only said it's all at managers discretion, so couldn't go further forward with it.
Again - lots of false hope and promises of bonuses, sick pay and holiday that was taken away. All seems to be the same problem with the same recruiting manager.
Interview Question – How have you failed to deliver a customers expectation? Answer Question
Negotiation Details – Terrible negotiation phase - agreed to everything I asked for, but later removed it. Contracts are generic with statutory minimums and state "Any enhancement or uplift is at managers discretion"
Accepted Offer
Negative Experience
Easy Interview
I applied through a recruiter and the process took 3 weeks - interviewed at HCL Technologies.
Interview Details took place over 2 Interviews:
Interview 1: Telephone interview
Quite technical, I nailed it as the questions were fairly standard.
"How would you configure an SAN disk in vxvm?" , questions around Solaris Virtualisaiton, etc..
When I tried to ask questions about the role, the interviewer didn't seem very ready to elaborate on answers he gave. He gave me the impression he either wasn't happy working for the firm or could have been that he wasn't accustomed to interviewing.
interview 2: face to face
This was more of a competency interview with a technical manager. Questions were nothing taxing.
"tell me about yourself"
"tell me about an event where you had set a customer expectation but then could not deliver?"
"what do you understand about ITIL?"
During the interview the manager would occasionally take phone calls on his blackberry mobile, and on one occasion checked his email. I thought it was a bit rude.
They offered me the job a few days later.
2 days after the job offer they then called me to say that there had been a mistake on the amount specified in the salary and that the role was paying £5K less.
I wasn't prepared to budge on the Salary reduction so they agreed to the original amount, on the basis that I would get no bonuses.
I accepted the terms.
A few days later, the recruitment manger at HCL called me and asked if I would be prepared to accept the role as 1 year contract with the option to go permanent afterwards.
I wasn't prepared to take the 1 year contract, so after a day or so he back tracked to the original offer.
A few days afterwards, the same Recruitment manager called me again asking if I would be prepared to relocate to Manchester or Leeds for the role. This was now becoming silly, every couple of days they seemed to want to change terms. I explained that I was not looking to move to the North of England as my life and commitments were in the south.
At this point I should have walked away from this.. but foolishly I carried on giving them the benefit of the doubt.*
I eventually (2 and a half weeks after the original offer had been made) received the offer letter and employment contract, which I signed and sent back upon 2 days of receipt.
I then resigned from the job I had at the time.
The morning after I'd resigned from my job and posted the documents to HCL, I received a VM message from the HCL recruitment manager informing me that they were revoking the job offer because they had found someone else who was prepared to relocate.
This was utterly devastating! I felt completely messed about.
Luckily for me, the employer I had resigned from was prepared to give me my job back.
HCL then had the audacity to call me a week later to tell me they were looking for a different role to fit me in their organisation. I obviously told him where he could stick his job!
Beware of this company, especially if dealing with a certain Watford-based HCL Recruitment Manager. You know who you are Mr SS.
Interview Question – None - it was fairly simple process. See detail above. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – It was diabolical. They found them highly unprofessional.
I've had better experiences haggling with a market trader.

text: I bought these shoes last week and walked around the house for a couple days, then took them to the gym and ran just over 3 miles. I found the shoe comfortable and cushiony with stability as expected. Today 3/8/14 I hiked 11.3 miles at Land Between the Lakes in Tennessee. The terrain was hilly, snowy, slushy, muddy (red clay mud that you sink into if you don't move quickly), rocky, full of puddles and even included a pasture :). Considering all the elements it was a challenging trail today. I am extremely impressed and proud to report that upon completion, my feet were dry, my shoes were CLEAN :), and I have NO hot spots. Though I am wiped out, my feet feel great. I am impressed with this shoe and amazed at the technology behind it. I definitely recommend! I plan on buying the mid-length boot in this same shoe as well. My picture below shows my shoes after the hike without being washed or wiped down.

More reviews by peppermint1170
My sister and I both tried this out to help even out our skin tone and general complexion. We both noticed that after only about 2 or 3 days of using it morning and night, our skin looked smoother and brighter. Our wrinkles were ironed out a bit, our pores seemed smaller, skin felt tight and glowy... we were so happy with the quick results. But unfortunately we both noticed that after about a week, the great results had faded and our skin looked just as it had before using the cleanser. I was hoping that this was due to some other factor - diet, stress, etc. so I continued use. It's been about a month now and my skin still looks no different from when I began using the cleanser. Very disappointed that the results didn't last... I've heard good things about Obagi C, will give it a try and hope for lasting results.
this is a steaming pile of cow poo, it broke me out sooooo much. it turns out that glycolic acid as well as any other exfoliants breaks and destroy the top layer of the skin leaving it prone to wrinkles and acne bacteria.
I first tried this cleanser years ago when I worked at a pharmacy and we recieved a generous employee discount on md forte products. I loved their moisturizing cream so I tried out their cleanser as well. I was so disappointed with it!! It was one of the worst products that I had ever used. It felt like I was washing my face with lotion, it never removed any makeup, and my face didn't feel clean afterwards. My face also didn't improve in any way. I still broke out, my complexion was still uneven, i had to spend a fortune on facials for my skin to clear (I suffer from the closed comedome acne that are impossible to pop). 5 years later, my face went through another massive breakout so out of desperation, I did as much research as possible on finding the best skin products and came across MUA. I looked to see the highest rated cleansers and was shocked to see is as one of the tops. Out of curiosity, I read what people had to say on it and realized that I was using it wrong that whole time! I had no idea that you were supposed to apply to dry skin bc water inactivated the glycolic acid. I tried using it again and I think it can possibly be my HG cleanser. It has only been 1 week so It is too soon to tell but so far, it is the only cleanser that has not left my face dry afterwards and that is huge because even purpose and cetaphil left my face dry. I am still going through a slight skin purge which is why I am not completely sold on it yet but overall, my face does feel softer and better. It is also not too irritating to use with differin gel. I knocked 1 star off bc of the purging and also, it stings like crazy for about a minute when applying it to the skin. I will update this review in about a month to see how it goes. I will gladly add a star back if my skin clears and stays soft despite the stinging.

Decided to try this cleanser based on great reviews and I'm very glad I did. I started with the Facial Cleanser II and am now using the Facial Cleaner III. It isn't too harsh on my face at all and keeps my skin clear! I use with my fingers in the morning and my clarisonic at night. It has been a great routine for me. I have bought many other MD Forte products and am in love with this brand!

I now realize I can't live without this. After having used it daily for a couple of years, I decided I would try to go without it, to cut back on spending. I figured I wasn't really sure if it did anything anyway. So, I hadn't used it for quite a few months. My foundation wasn't looking great recently and I felt my complexion wasn't looking great in general. I decided to spend the money and buy this product again. And after a couple weeks now, WOW. What a difference. My skin feels soft again. My complexion is brighter. Smoother. I swear I look younger. Just a huge improvement. I will never go without again.

I use retin a 0.5% and use this cleanser a few times a week to take care of the flakies and dry skin. Apply, massage and leave for a few mins... then wipe off with a damp wash cloth and rinse! Does NOT remove makeup well, so you will need to cleanse that off before this. Packaging is ok, I need to order it off ebay as MD Forte is easily available in the UK.

I have highly tolerant skin after years of Retin Micro A use. Decided to try this with the encouragement of my dermatologist to help with flakes from the Retin A. She recommended to use it twice a week. I use it as a 5 min mask, then wash it off. I had a lot of cystic acne break outs recently, and I'm trying to determine if this is the problem. Will wean off and try to figure it out.
I've used this cleanser for several yrs. It's creamy and only stings if you leave it on too long. I don't think it caused more pimples, but it didn't prevent them. I'm trying an AHA cream next.
Love this cleanser. This has recently taken second place to my JM Argan Cleansing Oil, however the two are so different. This really "deep cleans" my skin. It removes make-up, makes my skin so clean and doesn't dry it out. Definitely a staple for me! Expensive in a way at $30 a bottle, but you get a generous amount and can find it on sale at online stores almost all the time. Definite re-buy.

I'm hearing great things about this cleanser but how "great" can a cleanser be? I've just started using it and so far I like it. It's got a creamy consistency and doesn't sting at all. Afterward it feels as though my skin is clean. So I guess for that it's good. I'm going to try to use it as a mask as others here have mentioned and will report back. I'm hoping for greatness.
